[QUOTE="bogmad, post: 6100573, member: 6695559"] I'd say this is the most cogent analysis of 5e I've seen to sum it up so far [while readily allowing for disagreement I suppose]. For me this works GREAT, though I could swing a little less in PC favorable math and be happy. I mainly play 4e nowadays, but still have a nostalgia for the 2e I started with. If you say the d20 system and balanced albeit pc favored math are small bits of 3 and 4e that fall under the big tent, is the "big tent" still a lie? Can you have a Big Tent edition that equally accounts for an equal percentage of every edition to fall under the tent? A lot of the argument on here for me boils down to people wanting more of their favorite edition kept under the tent. WotC has claimed (or suggested, depending on who you ask) that any style of previous editions will be possible, but at the moment it seems to me that some edition styles may take more stretching via "advance rules" than others to achieve. And who knows if those rules will ever show up? Should there be a rules module labeled "metagame mechanics"? [/QUOTE]
